The acclaimed Yamaha action brings an unheralded level of creative flexibility to the unique musical character of the celesta. Specially designed steel plates and resonators produce a pure, liquid tonality. And close attention to design and detailing makes these instruments a joy to behold, a pleasure to play and a confident orchestral investment. * A grand piano style action with full-length keys provides remarkable expression and control, with a light but positive touch and delicate response. * Special high-carbon tempered steel plates and a unique resonator configuration deliver pure, vibrant tones throughout the entire range. * Piano-standard keyboard height and a narrow keyslip offer a more natural, comfortable posture and hand positioning. * Key surfaces of Ivorite and unstained ebony are a pleasure to see and to play. * The cabinet, crafted of oak veneer with a mahogany finish and metal grilles, blends well with orchestral settings. * The music rest is positioned to allow clear line-of-sight visibility for both score and conductor. * The damper pedal is aligned as a pianist would expect – slightly right of center. * Rugged handles and double-wheel locking casters ensure easy, durable mobility. * And, of course, Yamaha's worldwide reputation for unwavering quality and support stand behind every instrument.
